Webinars
NLADA hosts webinars that strengthen the work of the civil legal aid and public defender communities.
NLADA records the webinars we host so that people from across our community can take advantage of the ideas and expertise those sessions offer. Most be watched, along with other videos, on our YouTube channel; the sessions on budget advocacy organized in collaboration with American University are hosted on its site.
Explore how attorneys, social workers, and service providers collaborate to support clients, promote equity, and drive sustainable success in the legal system.
This session will provide an overview of eviction defenses for tenants in federally subsidized housing programs and in the private rental market, with a Q&A for advanced topics.
We will discuss how to build these supportive communities and how to sustain ourselves emotionally, mentally, and physically as we press forward in doing this critical work.
